I work downtown so everyone parks in a nearby parkade. I'm walking with a co-worker up to the 4th floor and then we chatted a bit like we always do by one corner of the parkade. After a bit this truck comes flying up into the adjacent corner and slams on its breaks, about to crash into the wall or any of the cars nearby. A guy jumps out with binoculars and does whatever the hell he's doing, talking to someone or himself. His behavior is a bit erratic, possibly drunk or on drugs, and my co-worker is parked right next to his truck so he doesn't really feel like he can leave without having some interaction with the guy. We're about 60 feet apart at this point. The guy gets back in his truck backs up and then floors it straight towards us for a couple seconds and then swerves to continue going up. (After the encounter, we both thought he was actually going to run us over.) As he's going up, the back of his truck opens and a tool chest goes flying. He slams on the breaks. He's about 20 feet from us at this point, and just stares at us with a mean look, pulls out an electric drill that he starts revving(?) through the open window. He says something like, "Don't Move" and something else I can't make out. He gets out of the truck and is now dual wielding two electric drills, continuing to rev them at us. All this time, he hasn't taken his eyes off of us. He puts one down and picks up something else, my co-worker thought it looked like a sheathed machete because the guy pulled it out a little before putting it back. I'm trying to make as little eye contact as possible and planning our escape route if he starts running at us. The guy eventually goes to put the tool chest back into his truck, at this point I'm motioning to my co-worker to head towards the stair case so he can't run us over. We reach the stairs as he gets back in his truck, flips it around and heads back down. We knew we weren't going to leave until we saw him leave which took another five minutes before we saw him drive out the exit, cross three lanes to go into a parking lot on the other side and out of view. What would be your next action? Keep in mind, this is where I have to park every single day of work. --- Menji+ https://imgur.com/F5UEyUw \| https://imgur.com/pPZsSZU Congrats to Advokaiser!
